Developing end markets for FOGO-derived products

Market development strategy

The food organics and garden organics (FOGO) market development strategy was commissioned by the Waste Authority to inform stakeholders of market barriers and opportunities for FOGO-derived products.

The strategy and related documents can be found on the FOGO Resources page, under ‘Reports’.
